    The Ancient One says

    A Little Prayer

    Let us be thankful, Lord, for little things -
    The song of birds, the rapture of the rose;
    Cloud-dappled skies, the laugh of limpid springs,
    Drowned sunbeams and the perfume April blows;
    Bronze wheat a-shimmer, purple shade of trees -
    Let us be thankful, Lord of Life, for these!

    Let us be praiseful, Sire, for simple sights; -
    The blue smoke curling from a fire of peat;
    Keen stars a-frolicking on frosty nights,
    Prismatic pigeons strutting in a street;
    Daisies dew-diamonded in smiling sward -
    For simple sights let us be praiseful, Lord!

    Let us be grateful, God, for health serene,
    The hope to do a kindly deed each day;
    The faith of fellowship, a conscience clean,
    The will to worship and the gift to pray;
    For all of worth in us, of You a part,
    Let us be grateful, God, with humble heart.

    - Robert William Service
